I booked this lovely hostel last minute before arriving in Bangkok to begin my backpacking trip. First of all, the location is AWESOME! It's in a somewhat untouched portion of the city that has amazing markets, shops, and authentic food without any over-towering (touristy) hotels or condominiums at all. The hosts and workers at the hostel are extremely kind, and the breakfast and coffee options they prepare are wonderful (I really meant it, the coffee is fantastic). The rooms are very minimal as to be expected, but the bunk beds have some very useful compartments and places to lock up your valuables, and the underneath lighting is pretty cool too. Anyway, it's clean, safe, well-maintained, and a great deal considering how cheap it is to stay here. The building is also very interesting and has many staircases that connect to different parts of the structure. I really recommend the place for backpackers over vacationers. My friend and I stayed for 2 days and really enjoyed it. A++ - I would certainly come back again.
